Reading your other post it seems like IPF is for solving the issues causing problems that are learned before the second birthday and self-concept issues are problems that arrise later then that.
I would expect that for many people both kind of issues are important to resolve.
Yeah, though I should probably add to my other comment (I’ll go edit it in) that I’m not totally bought into the precise claims about what age range IPF covers. It seems plausible to me that while it’s more capable of tapping into very early life experiences better than other therapies, it does also affect insecure conditioning developed somewhat later in childhood.
But I agree with your general point that self-concept work and IPF seem complementary. (I’ve actually also been going back to self-concept work a bit more in the very last week, since it feels like the possibility of having more strongly positive self-concepts has gotten more “unlocked” after IPF/IFS/Coherence Therapy work.)
